In such cases, the Customer will be notified by email or through our customer service line.

8. TIME LIMITS, DELIVERY PLACE AND LOSSES.
-
INDEPENDENT LIQUOR is committed to delivering the product in perfect condition to the address indicated by the Customer on the order form, to an adult present at that address, or to the concierge if it is a residential unit, building, or similar, provided the Customer authorizes this. However, INDEPENDENT LIQUOR is not obligated to guarantee that the recipient is specifically the Customer. In any case, the address must be within the Territory. To optimize delivery, the Consumer must provide an address where the order can be delivered during normal business hours and clearly identify the person who will receive the order. INDEPENDENT LIQUOR will not be responsible for errors or delays in delivery when the Customer has incorrectly entered the delivery address on the purchase form, in the WhatsApp conversation, or by telephone, and therefore the address cannot be found or does not correspond to the Customer's actual address. LICOR INDEPENDIENTE will ship orders through delivery services that operate via mobile apps or otherwise. Once the product is delivered to the customer or an authorized recipient at the indicated address, LICOR INDEPENDIENTE will not be responsible for any damage to the product or for orders that are subsequently found to be incomplete. LICOR INDEPENDIENTE will inform customers at the time of purchase of the shipping cost, which will vary depending on the location, delivery method, and delivery time.
-
DELIVERY TIME: LICOR INDEPENDIENTE will ship orders through a last-mile logistics company. This delivery time is an estimate and may vary due to logistical reasons or force majeure. In case of delivery delays, LICOR INDEPENDIENTE will inform its customers via WhatsApp if the purchase was made through the Website, or by phone or WhatsApp if the purchase was made through these channels. Delivery is considered complete from the moment LICOR INDEPENDIENTE makes the product available to the Customer, as evidenced by the tracking system used by the shipping company. Delays will not be considered to have occurred if the order was shipped to the Customer via the shipping company within the agreed timeframe but could not be delivered due to reasons attributable to the Customer. Once the order leaves our stores, the customer will be notified if the purchase was made through the Website, by phone, or via WhatsApp, confirming that their order has been accepted and is being shipped. For security reasons, LICOR INDEPENDIENTE will not send any orders to P.O. boxes, military bases, police stations, and will not accept any orders when it is not possible to identify the recipient of the order and their address.
-
DELIVERY INFORMATION, UNDELIVERIES, AND LOSS: LICOR INDEPENDIENTE is not responsible for delivering products to incorrect addresses, provided that the address is the one the customer provided on the purchase form. In this case, LICOR INDEPENDIENTE may contact the customer via phone, WhatsApp, or email to verify the address. Due to logistical limitations, we make two delivery attempts. If, upon visiting the address, no one is available to receive the order or if effective contact cannot be established, the order will be returned to LICOR INDEPENDIENTE. We will then contact the buyer to arrange an additional delivery, the cost of which will be agreed upon by both parties and borne by the customer.
-
DELIVERY DILIGENCE The Consumer or the person authorized to receive the order must check the good condition of the package in the presence of the carrier who, on behalf of LICOR INDEPENDIENTE, delivers the purchased product, noting any anomalies detected in the packaging on the delivery receipt. If, after inspecting the product, the Consumer or their authorized person detects any issues such as dents, breakage, signs of tampering, or any damage caused to the product during shipping, the Customer agrees to notify LICOR INDEPENDIENTE through any of the means provided on the B2C digital platforms, and/or by telephone or WhatsApp, as soon as possible, and no later than 24 hours after delivery. After this time, no claims for such issues will be accepted; only products with quality defects will be addressed.

PAYMENT REVERSAL If the Consumer used a credit card, debit card or any other electronic payment method that has an agreement with LICOR INDEPENDIENTE as the means of payment, the issuer of the electronic payment instrument or the participants in the operation may reverse it within (5) business days, provided that one of the following situations occurs:

11 RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
11.1 Procedure for Exercising the Right of Withdrawal. The Customer's Right of Withdrawal applies to all products purchased on B2C digital platforms, by telephone, and via WhatsApp that, by their nature, should not be consumed within five (5) days. The Customer must notify LICOR INDEPENDIENTE of their intention to return the purchased product(s) by email within a maximum period of five (5) business days from the date of delivery. Furthermore, the Customer must verify compliance with the remaining conditions established below:
-
The product must be in the same condition as when it was delivered and must retain its original packaging, labeling and stamp; additionally, it must not show any alterations.
-
LICOR INDEPENDIENTE will inform the Consumer of the address of our LICOR INDEPENDIENTE office to which the product should be sent or delivered.
-
The shipment and delivery of the returned product must be done using the same packaging in which it was received to protect the product, so that it arrives at the LICOR INDEPENDIENTE office with all the necessary guarantees.
-
LICOR INDEPENDIENTE will not cover shipping costs for product returns. To facilitate the return process for consumers and ensure proper tracking, LICOR INDEPENDIENTE informs you that this is the only return procedure established for purchases made from LICOR INDEPENDIENTE, without prejudice to warranty conditions and other provisions established by law. In all cases, return shipping costs will be the responsibility of the consumer.
11.2 Consumer Refunds for Withdrawals. The return of products, once previously approved, will result in a refund equal to the value of the products paid for, excluding shipping/delivery fees. Returns and partial cancellations will result in partial refunds. The refund procedure will vary depending on the payment method used for the purchase. For credit card payments, the refund will be issued to the credit card used for the purchase. This refund will be processed by LICOR INDEPENDIENTE through the payment processing platform: Mercado Pago (or the platform determined at the time of purchase), within a maximum of 30 calendar days from the moment the buyer exercises the right of withdrawal and/or makes a partial cancellation of their order. For all orders, the refund will be activated once LICOR INDEPENDIENTE confirms delivery of the products to its office. For payments made with a PSE debit card, the refund will be issued to a Mercado Pago account in the name of the order's payer, according to the payment processing platform's policy. Once the refund request is processed by Mercado Pago, the payer will receive an email notification with instructions on how to activate their Mercado Pago account and withdraw the funds using the selected option (transfer to a savings or checking account, or using the available balance directly from the Mercado Pago account). The refund may take up to thirty (30) days after the physical store confirms receipt of the products.
11.3 GUARANTEE OF PURCHASED PRODUCTS LICOR INDEPENDIENTE acts as the manufacturer and guarantees that the products offered for sale on B2C digital platforms, via telephone, and via WhatsApp, comply with all legal requirements for proper distribution and sale in Antioquia, are in perfect condition, and have no defects or hidden flaws that could make them dangerous or unsuitable for normal use. The contractual guarantee offered is the standard guarantee provided by the manufacturer, LICOR INDEPENDIENTE. The product guarantee will only be honored in cases of quality issues, that is, when the merchandise's characteristics in color, smell, taste, appearance, and presentation do not meet the original product standards. In these cases, the Customer must notify LICOR INDEPENDIENTE as soon as possible and will have a limited time to report the quality problem or defect, considering that the guarantee period begins from the date of delivery. For products stored for extended periods, the warranty claim period is thirty (30) calendar days from the date of purchase. Once a warranty claim or report has been filed, the waiting period for acceptance or rejection of a quality claim is 15 business days from the date the complaint, claim, request, suggestion, or request (PQRS) is submitted, or the period established by current regulations governing the Right of Petition. The acceptance or rejection of a warranty claim submitted by the Consumer will proceed in accordance with current Colombian legislation applicable to the matter. Any accepted quality claim will be compensated with a replacement product. The warranty will be void in the case of defects or damage caused by external factors, accidents, or use not in accordance with the Manufacturer's instructions. The warranty will not cover products damaged by improper use. For the warranty to be valid and applied, all requests related to quality issues will be objectively investigated and analyzed by the responsible department based on the evidence previously presented by the customer; this does not imply acceptance of the claim. The warranty also applies to products on sale or promotion, provided that any defects or damage related to the quality, suitability, and safety conditions, which must be guaranteed, arise in relation to the purchased products (goods or services). The affected consumer may request the corresponding warranty directly from the supplier, distributor, or producer of the respective good or service. The acceptance or rejection of a warranty claim submitted by the customer will proceed in accordance with current Colombian legislation applicable to the matter. If, upon delivery of the product, it is found to be damaged (broken bottle), open and showing signs of having been consumed, or with a broken security seal (indicating it has been opened), the product will be replaced. This applies only if it is verified that the damage was not caused by the customer.
